Here is a recap in Photos. Stay tuned for highlights and story!!
 
Week 1 of the VBL started off with a bang.  The games were all action packed and full of
amazing highlights.  There were some thrillers, individual performances, and highlights that
made the crowd jump off their feet.

 Swagg Media Over The Corporation

 Swagg Media pulls away from the Corporation 91-72.

Four Players scored in double figures for  Swagg Media. D.J. Shumpert, Brandon Towns, and  DeShaun Patterson Scored 18 points each. 
The game started out quickly for Swagg Media with an 8-0 run. D.J Shumpert electrified the
court with an alley oop dunk with 7:28 in the first quarter. Deshaun Patterson also finished with
an alley oop finish of his own with 5:23 in the first. Ozi Wata may have been undersized against
D.J. Shumpert, but his effort on the boards kept the Corporation in the game to make it a 26-24
game at the end of the first. Swagg Media forced Corporation to turn the ball over and take
contested shots from the second quarter all the way to the finish.

Baller’s World Outlasts Overthrown

Both teams went back and forth with highlights galore. Darnell Dialls made his presence known
with an emphatic block in the first quarter with seven minutes to go. He also followed up that 
highlight with another flush with two minutes to go in the first quarter. Amin Sahwani dribble
driving and spun his way 5 assists Joel Brokenbrough clinched the game with a 2 handed dunk
with less than a minute remaining. Andre McPhail earned player of the game honors with 24
points on 12/15 shooting.

BrandBlack Powers Through Sunblock

Brandblack overpowered Sunblock from start to finish 81-52. It was  an all around effort for the
defending champions. Eugene Wright was everywhere defensively with 7 steals 7 rebounds and
5 assists. Leon Gibson and Tristan Wilson controlled the boards and the game with their height
and their effort. Both combined for 25 rebounds. Those rebounds led to fastbreak points. Not
much went right for Sunblock but they had moments in the 1st quarter that excited the crowd.
Michael Purdie rocked the rim with an alley oop finish with 6 minutes and Brandon Fields had an
emphatic rejection with 2 minutes left.  Those highlights were enough to overcome the size and
rebounding disparity.

The Panda’s Friend Survives Against Kings Academy

The Panda’s Friend escapes in a thriller 62-60. Both teams engaged back and forth from start
to finish. Although there was a lot of uptempo gameplay from the Kings Academy forcing
turnovers that led to easy points in transition. The Panda’s Friend also used the break when
necessary and dominated one on one situations. The game was also physical during the last few
minutes of the 4th quarter.  The game was decided by free throws and the Pandas earned the
points and the victory.
